You Cannot Fake Fellowship With God Friend or Folly Psalms 94:20 “Shall the throne of iniquity have FELLOWSHIP with thee, which frameth mischief by a law?” Iniquity is the Evil Seed called Satan who created for himself his own pattern of justification to walk independent of the Godhead by the law of his own principle and aspiring goals. The real hypocrite is ‘true to themselves’ but not true to God. The word TRUE here means based on the original pattern of their origin. Satan is the first hypocrite which valued his own signature above the Truth (Christ) Who is the original origin of all creation. God’s Plan set forth before His celestial Beings was optional to their own nature. The knowledge God spoke was to challenge the will of their choice. Satan chooses the contradiction of his own nature as the true scale in direct opposition to God’s Oath (Jesus Christ). Ezekiel 28:15 “Thou wast perfect in thy ways from the day that thou wast created, TILL INIQUITY was found in thee.” All those that confirm him worship his pattern and are children of wickedness. These live apart from His grace and walk contrary to the true pattern for the increase of godliness. Satan used associations (personal communications) with God as a form of validation and approval. So today religious iniquity practices righteousness by association as did Balaam, Cain, and Korah. (Jude 1:11) These either use the Holy writings or personal revelations to promote themselves for God’s approval. These 'kind' will be out-of-season to God (Wind of Grace) by their aspirations of tradition and social issues. They will reflect that same darkness by the manifestation of derision on them as Satan does. 1Corinthians 2:8 “Which none of the princes of this world knew: for HAD THEY KNOWN it, they would not have crucified the Lord of glory”. There is no fellowship here! Anything Less than His Light is a Lie Anything less than the Light of God is called darkness and folly. For the angels God created were to serve His great Plan for Adam and not for fellowship because how can anything less than God fellowship on the same level as the Creator Who is a Consuming Fire. These ministering Spirits were assigned the task of pleasing God by their obedience to Him in serving this Plan, but not for fellowship. For they have a different promise from God for a reward. Job 15:15 Behold, he putteth no trust in his saints; yea, the heavens are NOT CLEAN IN HIS SIGHT. Job 4:18 Behold, he put no trust in his servants; and his ANGELS he charged with folly: Folly: thoughtlessness, recklessness, or thoughtless or reckless behaviour Even the angels marvelled at how longsuffering God is to see to completion His Plan. We must also take notice here and learn about what God expects out of us (those born of Him) in being longsuffering towards one another and those which are ignorant. This Power is necessary for our behaviour in the unlocking of Christ to us now and for the things to come. (Hebrews 6:5) God concealed His Mystery of this Plan from the celestial Beings only to be revealed upon the resurrection of Jesus Christ. As Jesus said and the apostle Paul carried forth for the church to know. Luke 12:32 “Fear not, little flock; for it is your Father's GOOD PLEASURE to give you the kingdom.” Matthew 25:34 "Then shall the King say unto them on his right hand, Come, ye blessed of my Father, inherit the kingdom PREPARED for you from the foundation of the world:" 1Corinthians 2:9 "But as it is written, Eye hath not seen, nor ear heard, neither have entered into the heart of man, the things which God hath PREPARED for them that love him." This was not a passing statement but His goal for them. Jesus did not say this to confirm the holy angels but to exhort the vessels of earthly frailty. Vessels of clay possess many breakable parts. The Mystery of the Seed The mystery continually unfolds in the parable of the mustered seed. If you can look at a tree with this perspective the Holy Ghost will show you a great blessing in this parable. The fellowship is based in exact likeness with the same capabilities. We assemble with those of like nature which express the same interests where we can be filled with the benefits of the aspirations without any conflict of the principle. Friends with God forever is hard to imagine outside of the restricted and temporary realm of our first experience. It would be like explaining algebra to an ant. But God came in the flesh to communicate and share with us the unfolding of this Mystery of Himself. Its fragrance blows in the Wind to attract those that seek Him in truth. We mature as the flower does revealing its beauty. Now that is the anointing!(1John 2:27) I am talking about fellow with our Creator not just a casual greetings or mutual buddies that ‘hang-out’ together. Many believers fear the commitment of this fellowship of the divine nature out of ignorance of why God would do such a thing. Negative Fellowship will Result with Bad Things: We learn by Contrast 1Corinthians 10:20 “But I say, that the things which the Gentiles sacrifice, they sacrifice to devils, and not to God: and I would not that ye should have FELLOWSHIP with devils.” How did we fellowship with devils? We ignorantly entertained them by yoking our own soul with the seeds of their perspective since birth. We learned by responses and associations and began to master our own reality and logic which we valued as true and real to us. We were true to ourselves! But false to God. All the knowledge we received was to benefit the flesh not faith. That is how we worshipped devils. Satan saw himself in us and was pleased with our cooperation to honour his perspective of God, life and death and sources of peace and security. False knowledge! Compare Satan’s Fellow to God’s 1Corinthians 1:9 “God is faithful, by whom ye were called unto the FELLOWSHIP of his Son Jesus Christ our Lord.” The Voice of the Spirit of His grace influences our perspective of God. It is under this power of faith that God sees Himself in us. The pure conscience is the mirror of Christ who is our discerner and porter of the gate. We are called to Him! Why? For the benefit of fulfilling His Plan in us and through us. The seed becomes the tree and the tree is greater than the seed that bore it. Ephesians 3:9 “And to make all men see what is the FELLOWSHIP of the mystery, which from the beginning of the world hath been hid in God, who created all things by Jesus Christ:” Philippians 2:1 “If there be therefore any consolation in Christ, if any comfort of love, if any FELLOWSHIP of the Spirit, if any bowels and mercies, fulfil ye my joy and be likeminded.” God is not looking for those that will borrow His knowledge or extrapolate His will. For those that did so transgressed against Him even as the fallen Watchers and Satan did upon hearing the Plan for Adam. The Baptism I Am Baptised With We call this the Baptism of Light where that which is equal to Himself will enter into His Bosom. How did the wisdom of God direct faith without the dangers of promoting the aspiration and feeding the imagination. We cannot please God with good intents or any earthly things but God provided gifts for us that were not earth bound but heavenly given. As He fed the children of Israel with the manna from heaven to free them from the toiling of the soil for increase so today God has given the token of the seal (tongues) to navigate around the soulish projections and starve the imagination putting to death the powers of the flesh to survive. Now we are crucified with Christ to share in the glory. Hear John’s Understanding of Fellowship 1John 1:3 “That which we have seen and heard declare we unto you, that ye also may have FELLOWSHIP with us: and truly our FELLOWSHIP is with the Father, and with his Son Jesus Christ. 6 If we say that we have FELLOWSHIP with him, and walk in darkness, we lie, and do not the truth: 7 But if we walk in the light, as he is in the light, we have FELLOWSHIP one with another, and the blood of Jesus Christ his Son cleanseth us from all sin.” Fellowship must have an equal exchange and charity is the prize token. For charity shall cover a multitude of sins. By the tools of the covenant we can show our love to God by first showing our love to our brother with charity, an invisible power for equal exchange. By this exchange we free the soul to His righteousness and bring healing to ourselves and one another. What a marvellous gift and great wisdom which the world cannot receive because it sees Him not nor knows Him. Yes ,Jesus is Still Manifested in this World: Only the Righteous See Him 2Thessalonians 1:10 “When he shall come to be glorified in his saints, and to be ADMIRED in all them that believe (because our testimony among you was believed) in that day.” Admired: to regard somebody or something with approval, appreciation, or respect; to look at somebody or something beautiful or attractive with enjoyment Observe how charity tames the beastly nature of man by the invisible tokens of Jesus’ covenant. The world sees the spiritual things (invisible tokens and tongues) as foolishness because they cannot project into the outcome for the benefit of the aspirations. The knowledge of this world promotes the powers of the imagination with promises of increase. This will not tame the soul with the virtues of longsuffering, meekness and patience of faith, but on the contrary it will work bitterness, envy, emulation, deceit, maliciousness, covetousness and other distortions of their own realities. People admire the aspirations of talents and skills both physical and intellectual and rewards those that promise to benefit the carnal man. The honour of the world is an abomination to God and its wisdom is foolishness to Him. Do You Really What To Get God’s Approval: Read More Matthew 8:10 “When Jesus heard it, he MARVELLED, and said to them that followed, Verily I say unto you, I have not found so great faith, no, not in Israel .” Marvelled: something that inspires awe, amazement, or admiration: Marvel: to be very impressed, surprised, or bewildered Jesus responded to faith, not to religious aspirations of self-improvement or goals of grandeur, but to faith. Real faith is born from the reflection of His grace as we read of the lives of those elders in Hebrews 11:1 God also marvels at the unfolding of His craftsmanship in us. Just as a watchmaker puts time and talent into the quality of the watch and wishes others to share in his work so the Almighty God rejoices over His craftsmanship of His great Plan in us. We will partake of a fellowship that will result in the perpetual expansion of His House. God is not looking for a buddy-buddy type of fellowship but a charity that reflects His own likeness into other dimensions and filling every chamber with good things. When God was in the mortal form He experienced the restrictions of His own Oath He placed upon Himself to prepare a Record of faith to replace Satan’s record of iniquity. From lowness to greatness and from sorrow to joy. Jesus was also amazed in the garden of His trial which He had to trust His own wisdom towards Him in the receiving the strength of the grace upon the arrival of the angel. Amazed: to fill somebody with wonder or astonishment Jesus Christ gave us a covenant for this true fellowship of the Spirit which He prepared in the future--beginning for us and taking the title of the Alpha and the Omega. If we suffer with Him we shall reign with Him, if we deny Him (The Record for this fellowship) He will also deny us (the Baptism of Light of the inheritance).
